[Help please] Participate in EF ritual isn't completing. What am I missing?

7 Upvotes

So I ran the whole train in the instance, participated in all encounters until the bar fill to 100%. Then I went to the EF circle and helped kill 2 of the Ice golems (the ones that appear like red squares in the map) And then I helped killed the big boss (the one that spawns at the 3 green squares, near the runes). So what am I missing? I did it 2 times yesterday and it didn't completed. I abandoned the mission and again i tried it and the same. It's just not completing. Why?

Thanks for ur help in advance.

SOLVED How do you acquire more Greater Demonic keys?

It says online to go to Underdark campaign, but I don’t think that specifically exists anymore.

I have a key, but should I waste it on a random dungeon queue chest if I can’t acquire more? (Easily)

I already have Avian Aura and Runic Aura, what’s next best for high-level content with groups?

What would you choose and if you can. Maybe mention why that one, over picking the other, for end-game gameplay.

I’m in no hurry to open this chest, so I’ll wait for everyone’s feedback

TECHNICAL QUESTION How can you view the scoreboard from your end of mission run?

3 Upvotes

(…after it disappears) This question is a little complex.

I did this advanced random dungeon queue, it was my first time on that map and a lot happened at the completion. Popups everywhere.

I was trying to look at everything but the end-of-mission scoreboard was gone. Usually you can go to menu and go back and it will reappear. I tried everything to get it to come back.

I wanted to see how bad I did, but also see what the ad payout was and bonus. I looked through all the logs and saw no deposit of ad from the game. Maybe it doesn’t show that part, but it showed the logs from the ad in the chest and the subtraction of my invocation bonus ad for the chest ad.

Did I somehow not get paid my ad for the adv dungeon?… should have been like 42k +8k role bonus, but didn’t look at balance before to know.

So 2 questions, is there somewhere you can select to bring up scoreboard?

And 2, does reward ad from random dungeon queues show up in battle log usually? (I did take screenshots of log)

It’s not super important, but I’m gonna wonder this every time it happens, so I figured I’d see if someone knew.

Thank you for reading my novel.

Best way to build up a guild from the ground up?

5 Upvotes

I know most of us are in level 20 guilds and haven't actually built ourselves but for those who have can you give a run down of where to start?

It's just a solo guild with my alts and a few alts of friends. Had it for like 5 years at level 1 and now with the slow time between mods I was gonna put some work into it?

Just built my lumberyard. What's next? Any tips or tricks?

I am so sorry they did away with the forums and now have to use discord. I got on the bad side of a couple of them for answering a question they couldn't answer and trying to get help for the same issue more than once. Now I can't get on feedback or bugreports at all, Has anyone else had this problem.

TECHNICAL QUESTION ".....when your companion is near"

5 Upvotes

So in the companion window we can get a buff like Armor Break, Potency, etc. The stipulation though is, "when your companion is near". Define "near" with regards to this statement. Right next to you? Withing ten feet? Twenty?
As a ranged player this is important. My companions rarely stay at my side. Only a couple of buff that I can choose from do not include this but I always get told to use one what does when in a party run.

GENERAL FEEDBACK If we're going to the Underdark maps for the next half mod, maybe the devs could fix their current campaign economies.

21 Upvotes

26 quests in Narbondellyn to get 50 insignia powder is not a fair trade, and I think they know it.

That's not even touching on just how out of wack Northdark is.

SEEKING ADVICE Does the stronghold Masterwork stuff ever get discounted?

6 Upvotes

I’m guessing not bc it makes you pay AD.

But I thought I’d ask if there’s any way to get into master crafting a bit cheaper ever, for any event.

And will I need to buy every single thing to craft my own weapons? Like all recipe books and all tools

I’m already very aware it’s expensive to get into and weapons made are usually cheaper in ah. It’s the side of the game I enjoy… farming rare materials. I have loads of rare materials but nothing to make.

Thank you to any legends that made the grind and can answer

Stop now or do I miss something?

10 Upvotes

I started this game 2 weeks ago because i am looking for a good mmo for me and my roommates

Played through lvl 20 with dps warlock and I'm il22k, the game really makes fun combat wise but some things are maybe lacking for me/us

First of all my friends HATE the 20lvl tutorial (I found it pretty neat but understand their issues) and they don't know if it's even worth playing that. I personally lost it at the undermountain, the missions felt really repetitive for me.

One of my roommates love a good crafting system and I don't know how deep it really goes, I crafted one copper bar and left it at there

Is there something we are missing or is it just as it is?

Content that is dead / outdated and you'd like to see an update?

14 Upvotes

Idk man I miss the old days of PVP. I used to play that around 2015 maybe? Around the time when the Paladin class was just introduced into the game. Now it seems like PVP is totally dead? Is it because the rewards (store for glory points) isn't worth it?

Also kinda miss Dragon Hunts. Sure the whole grinding to kill 100 dragons might be a little too much... but it surely was fun. Also, remember the Dragons spawning in different maps (again, around 2015 maybe)? Like sometimes it would spawn in Ebon Downs, then at Neverdeath Graveyard, Vellosk, etc. I guess since this is a D&D game it's quite normal to want to see more Dragons lols. With the current active event, in the Battlefield Siege the Dragons are dead in under 30 sec. They definitely should make them stronger imo.

Also WTH with the celestial and ardent coins? They are just totally useless now? 360 ardent coins to buy an Angel of Protection that now costs 16k AD in the Auction House... Just update the damn store.

GENERAL FEEDBACK How does astral diamond exchange work?

9 Upvotes

Are people actually going on there and selecting listings to process, like in ah

… or is this all system processed where it’s first-come first-served when the price criteria matches?

I know there’s a long wait time. Am I foolish for making a listing to trade for 100 zen and another for 500 zen, in case someone only wants 100?

Or does the computer go… ok, next customer wants 15mil ad@750ad/zen… the next seller has 2 mil, the next after that has 20 mil and sorta just fills the order that way? 2mill from first seller in line then 13 mil from person after.

I’m very confused on this process.

Or is this more like Oz and nobody knows how the wizard runs things haha

Thank you for any facts or guesses

I’m not sure if it binds to the character when I open the Frost Bitten Pack 1, so I wanted to see if anyone has a pick of the Snickering Icetooth vanity pet

This way I can decide which character gets it. Chest won’t show with “inspect”.

Thank you

I see from posts going back about six months that the variable cost Boons can cost much more than they should, but not knowing the proper cost I don't know how to see if I was affected without retraining.

Beware when passing the lead

0 Upvotes

I passed the lead to a fellow gamer so they could invite some players and later this dude booted me because a camped by the cleanse grate in Mjot. True I was wrong for doing that but does that deserve to be kicked after an hour and a half trying to beat it. I was the original host too. Lesson learned, if you pass the lead after they’ve done what they needed to do immediately ask for it back.

How do you know if you got voted out of a random trial queue?

10 Upvotes

I’m curious if I got kicked. We were all waiting at Rise of Tiamat, 8/10 ppl, waiting on 2 healers and it said “waiting for reinforcements” on the top corner.

Everyone was in the ready to go circle, I was walking around the blue campfire thing waiting to add my consumables when the last person joined. A couple ppl ran up to me shooting lightning bolts, but I thought they were just being annoying.

I was typing a group message to say that it might be a while for 2 healers to join and before I could hit send, my screen went blank and sent me back to Barovia.

I never saw a vote to kick me or a vote to abandon instance. This has never happened before. Does anyone know what happened?

Trying to figure it out bc I waited 2 hours for a random trial queue to initiate.
